Interior door locks?

Was riding in the car and noticed that there are plastic tops to the door locks inside the car. (Don't you wish all your cars were so great that the lock tops were an issue )I have a 300 sport model, I was wondering if the luxury models maybe have a silver lock top, or if there are anything aftermarket ones I could screw in its place. I think a nice silver lock would look great against the black door and other stainless pieces in the car.
thanks for the help!

tried the search... didn't see anything. I'll look again. Just trying to improve on something, that's all. You have the locks in your car?
sorry for the excessive post, I know how annoying it can get from other forums I'm on.

Your search would have been more successful if you had been advised that the term for search for is "pins"...that is the word used to describe those plastic sleeves which screw onto the threaded lock posts.
